The different N55 variants can be determined by the vehicle's plant integration level: N55 with Continental HDP - older (less) than Xxxx-12-03-500 N55 with Bosch HDP - Xxxx-12-03-500 and newer (higher) The exception is the F30, which began production with the MEVD1726 DME (Bosch HDP) at plant integration level F020-11-11-500. SITUATION The Service Engine Soon light (MIL) can be illuminated with the erroneous internal and Valvetronic faults stored in the DME. The MIL will only come on if the fault has been detected on two (or more) consecutive drive cycles. The following fault codes may be stored in the DME: E Series z 36AE – DME, internal fault, Valvetronic: Current implausible One or more of the following secondary faults may also be stored: z 2DE2 – Valvetronic, actuation, voltage phase: Line disconnection z 2DE3 – Valvetronic, actuation, volt phase: Line disconnection z 2DE4 – Valvetronic, actuation, volt phase: Line disconnection F Series z 1F0905 – DME, internal fault, Valvetronic: Current implausible One or more of the following secondary faults may also be stored: z 135B10 – Valvetronic, actuation, voltage phase: Line disconnection z 135B11 – Valvetronic, actuation, volt phase: Line disconnection z 135B12 – Valvetronic, actuation, volt phase: Line disconnection https://www.bmwtis.net/tiscode/cgi-bin/bulletin.aspx?sie_path=/tsb/bulletins/htm_store/20821.1.B120415.... 3/2/2015 Page 3 of 5 Engine performance and driving characteristics are not affected. CAUSE DME software diagnostic sensitivity CORRECTION Perform diagnosis using the latest version of ISTA. Program the vehicle using the latest version of ISTA/P. The erroneous faults will no longer occur with DME software integration levels equal to or higher than those listed below: Engine and Series Target integration level or higher N20 (E84, E89) E89X-14-07-500 N20, N26 (F22, F30, F31, F32, F33, F36) F020-14-07-502 N20 (F25, F26) F025-14-07-502 N20 (F10) F010-14-07-503 N55 (E82, E84, E88, E92, E93) E89X-14-07-500 N55 (E70, E71) E070-14-11-501 N55 (F01, F02, F07) F001-14-03-503 N55 (F06, F10, F12, F13) F010-14-03-503 N55 (F15, F25, F26) F025-14-03-503 N55 (F22, F30, F31, F32, F33, F36) F020-14-03-503 N63T (F01, F02, F07) F001-14-07-503 N63T (F06, F10, F12, F13) F010-14-07-503 https://www.bmwtis.net/tiscode/cgi-bin/bulletin.aspx?sie_path=/tsb/bulletins/htm_store/20821.1.B120415.... 3/2/2015 Page 4 of 5 N63T (F15, F16) F025-14-07-502 Note that ISTA/P will automatically reprogram and code all programmable control modules that do not have the latest software. Always connect a BMW approved battery charger/power supply (SI B04 23 10). For information on programming and coding with ISTA/P, refer to Centernet / Aftersales Portal / Service / Workshop Technology / Vehicle Programming. WARRANTY INFORMATION Covered under the terms of the BMW New Vehicle/SAV Limited Warranty or the BMW Certified Pre-Owned Limited Warranty. Defect Code: 10 11 00 47 00 Labor Operation: Labor Allowance: Description: 00 00 006 Refer to KSD2 Performing “vehicle test” (with vehicle diagnosis system – checking faults) Refer to KSD2 Connect an approved battery charger/power supply (indicated in KSD 2 as Charging battery) Work time (WT) Performing vehicle diagnosis – test module And: 61 21 528 And, as necessary: 61 00 006 Labor operation code 00 00 006 is a Main labor operation. If you are using a Main labor code for another repair, use the Plus code labor operation 00 00 556 instead. Even though work time labor operation code 61 00 006 ends in “006,” it is not considered a Main labor operation. Work time (WT) labor operation 61 00 006 requires an individual punch time. And: F Series Vehicles Labor Operation: Labor Allowance: Description: 61 00 730 Refer to KSD2 Programming/encoding control unit(s) Or: E Series Vehicles https://www.bmwtis.net/tiscode/cgi-bin/bulletin.aspx?sie_path=/tsb/bulletins/htm_store/20821.1.B120415.... 3/2/2015 Page 5 of 5 Labor Operation: Labor Allowance: Description: 61 00 710 Refer to KSD2 Programming/encoding control unit(s) (not including CAS) Refer to KSD2 Programming/encoding control unit(s) (with CAS) Or: 61 00 720 Refer to KSD2 for the corresponding flat rate unit (FRU) allowance. Enter the Chassis Number, which consists of the last 7 digits of the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). Click on the “Search” button, and then enter the applicable flat rate labor operation in the FR code field. If a vehicle control module or component was working properly and/or had no related faults stored prior to vehicle programming and it fails to program correctly and/or requires initialization, this additional work must be claimed with separate labor operations under the defect code listed above; refer to KSD2. Repairs to address control modules and/or components with pre-existing conditions are not eligible to be claimed under the defect code listed in this bulletin. Other Repairs If performing ISTA diagnostics and related test plans results in other eligible and covered work, claim this work with the applicable defect code and labor operations listed in KSD2.
